Cambium Networks Limited, the UK trading company of Cambium Networks, entered administration on 14 September 2026, leaving businesses, schools and other organisations with Cambium networking equipment facing uncertainty over ongoing support, cloud management & the future of their Wi-Fi infrastructure.

Cambium's own statement confirms that the company has discontinued production of its Wi-Fi access points, NSE devices and cnMatrix switches, while also highlighting customer concerns about the continued availability of its cnMaestro Cloud management platform.

Cambium currently states that the intention is for cnMaestro Cloud to continue operating until the 1 October 2026.

Are you using Cambium Wi-Fi?

If your organisation uses Cambium access points, switches or cnMaestro to manage your wireless network, now is the time to establish exactly what equipment you have and what your options are.

This is particularly important for:

• Schools and academies
• Multi-academy trusts (MATs)
• Businesses and offices
• Warehouses and industrial sites
• Healthcare organisations
• Hospitality and leisure businesses
• Charities and public-sector organisations

For organisations that rely on Cambium's cloud-managed infrastructure, the uncertainty surrounding cnMaestro means that simply continuing with the existing installation will not be a suitable long-term strategy.

What happens if your Cambium Wi-Fi stops working?

The immediate concern for many organisations is not necessarily the physical access points themselves. Your Cambium hardware may continue to power up and broadcast Wi-Fi.

The bigger issue can be management, configuration, monitoring, support and future security updates.

If your wireless infrastructure relies on cnMaestro Cloud and that service becomes unavailable, organisations need to understand what that means for their particular installation.

For a school, loss of wireless connectivity can quickly affect:

• Staff and teacher devices
• Student laptops and tablets
• Interactive displays
• Cloud applications
• Microsoft 365
• Online learning platforms
• Safeguarding and filtering systems
• VoIP and other network-connected services

For businesses, Wi-Fi disruption can affect employees, visitors, mobile devices, scanners, VoIP, cloud applications and day-to-day operations.

Schools using Cambium: act before the problem becomes an emergency

For schools and MATs, replacing a wireless network can take time. Equipment needs to be specified, ordered, configured and installed, often around the school calendar to minimise disruption.

If your school is using Cambium Wi-Fi, don't wait until you have a network outage to find out what your options are.

Soltech IT already provides IT support and network services to schools and education organisations across the South West, London and surrounding areas.

We can carry out a Cambium Wi-Fi assessment and provide a clear plan for what needs to happen next.

Is your business affected by Cambium Networks entering administration?

If you are unsure whether your organisation is affected, we can help.

Whilst it's advisable to replace everything immediately. The first step is to understand what Cambium equipment you have, how it is being managed and what dependency your organisation has on Cambium's services.
